It all started with a visionary idea
I kept my eyes and ears open to see where I might have an opportunity.
Courage and foresight laid the foundation
In April 1969, Heinrich Laumann met Ewald Venhues in Sendenhorst, who had founded the company "VEKAPLAST" with a partner and was now looking for a buyer for the plastic production. At the time, VEKAPLAST produced plastic roller shutter profiles. A few days later, Heinrich Laumann took over the company with eight employees and a turnover of DM 1.7 million. The beginning of an international success story.
Future needs origin
The company headquarters are still located in Sendenhorst in Westphalia today. It was here that Heinrich Laumann laid the foundations for an unprecedented entrepreneurial success story with his visionary ideas and foresight.
How it all began
Heinrich Laumann took over the company VEKAPLAST in Sendenhorst, which manufactured roller shutters and building profiles with only 8 employees. Heinrich Laumann on the other hand focused on PVC windows as a product of the future. He quickly took initiatives to develop the first window profile system.
